Heterogeneous quantal response equilibrium and cognitive hierarchies (2009)

Rogers, Brian W., Palfrey, Thomas R., Camerer, Colin F.

We explore an equilibrium model of games where behavior is given by logit response functions, but payoff responsiveness and beliefs about others' responsiveness are heterogeneous. We study two...

Diversity and Popularity in Social Networks (2009)

Bramoullé, Yann, Rogers, Brian W.

Homophily, the tendency of linked agents to have similar characteristics, is an important feature of social networks. We present a new model of network formation that allows the linking process to...

Division Of The Humanities And Social Sciences (2007)

Jacob Goeree, Brian Rogers, Jacob K. Goeree, Thomas R. Palfrey, Brian W. Rogers

We consider an environment where individuals sequentially choose among several actions. The payo# to an individual depends on her action choice, the state of the world, and an idiosyncratic,...

Relating Network Structure to Diffusion Properties through Stochastic Dominance (2007)

Jackson, Matthew O., Rogers, Brian W.

We examine the spread of a disease or behavior through a social network. In particular, we analyze how infection rates depend on the distribution of degrees (numbers of links) among the nodes in the...

Learning and status in social networks (2006)

Rogers, Brian W.

The patterns in which individuals interact have important consequences. One notable phenomenon is social learning, which occurs when asymmetrically informed individuals observe the choices of others...

LEARNING AND STATUS IN SOCIAL NETWORKS (2006)

Brian W. Rogers, Brian W. Rogers

iii The patterns in which individuals interact with each other have important con-sequences for determining outcomes across a wide variety of contexts. One notable phenomenon that relies on these...

The Economics of Small Worlds (2005)

Jackson, Matthew O., Rogers, Brian W.

We examine a simple economic model of network formation where agents benefit from indirect relationships. We show that small-world features—short path lengths between nodes together with highly...

Search in the Formation of Large Networks: How Random are Socially Generated Networks? (2005)

Matthew O. Jackson, Brian W. Rogers

We present a model of network formation where entering nodes find other nodes to link to both completely at random and through search of the neighborhoods of these randomly met nodes. We show that...

The Strategic Formation of Large Networks: When and Why do We See Power Laws and Small Worlds? (2004)

Matthew O. Jackson, Brian W. Rogers

We introduce a search-based economic model of network formation. Individuals enter over time and find others at random and through a local search process, and then decide which links to form based on...

Forthcoming, American Economic Review (2004)

Matthew O. Jackson, Brian W. Rogers

We present a dynamic model of network formation where nodes find other nodes with whom to form links in two ways: some are found uniformly at random, while others are found by searching locally...

Self-Correcting Information Cascades

JACOB K. GOEREE, THOMAS R. PALFREY, BRIAN W. ROGERS

We report experimental results from long sequences of decisions in environments that are theoretically prone to severe information cascades. Observed behaviour is much different-information cascades...

Meeting Strangers and Friends of Friends: How Random Are Social Networks?
